Managed security services are information and network security services that are outsourced to third-party service providers. These providers offer network boundary protection, including managed services for firewalls, intrusion detection systems, and virtual private networks; security monitoring; managed anti-virus; content filtering; information security risk assessments; incident management, including emergency response and forensic analysis; vulnerability assessment and penetration testing; and data archiving & restoration services. In addition, some MSSPs also offer periodic vulnerability testing, patching, and escalation services. Managed security services may either be completely handled by the service providers from an off-site location, or the service provider may set-up the necessary infrastructure on-site in the organization, leaving the security to be managed by the organization.

Commenting on the report, an analyst from the team said: “With the various advantages of adopting cloud services such as lower cost and ease of installation and operations, SMEs prefer cloud services to other security service offerings. Also, even large enterprises that are already using CPE-based managed security services are switching to the cloud model. Thus, seeing the increasing demand for and increased popularity of cloud-based offerings, many vendors in the Global Managed Security Services market are offering cloud-based services. For instance, specialized cloud service providers such as MessageLabs (part of Symantec), Postini (acquired by Google Inc.), and Zscaler provide in-the-cloud security.”

According to the report, one of the major drivers is the need to improve the quality of protection. Because of the increase in the frequency of attacks, organizations are implementing managed security services that help in monitoring and providing better protection. The quality of protection can also be enhanced by outsourcing security responsibilities to MSSPs that have core expertise in this field. Hence, more end-users are adopting managed security services, a trend which is propelling the growth of the market.

Further, the report states that one of the major challenges faced by the market is the high cost of implementation. Despite the potential benefits, certain organizations refrain from investing in managed security services because of the high costs associated with it. Also, there are certain hidden costs involved in the maintenance of managed security services. This will make end-users reluctant to adopt them, thus affecting the growth of the market.

The study was conducted using an objective combination of primary and secondary information including inputs from key participants in the industry. The report contains a comprehensive market and vendor landscape in addition to a SWOT analysis of the key vendors.
